Uvod
Prizadevanja za varovanje tistih obmoij, kjer so strnjena najveja bogastva in lepote narave, imajo v Sloveniji e dolgo zgodovino. Od prvih pobud iz zaetka 20. stoletja se je ideja in potreba za njihovo ohranjanje razvijala vse do zadnjih desetletij, ko je postala paradigma civilizacijskih potreb in ena od poti oblikovanja trajnostnega razvoja drube. Zakaj taka prizadevanja, kaj in zakaj sploh varujemo dele narave? Sodobne drube s svojimi razvojnimi posledicami negativno vplivajo na razmere v naravi. Podatki o stanju biotske raznovrstnosti in trendih njihovega upadanja so zgovorni. Neokrnjena narava izginja. Vedno ira so spoznanja, da sta nebrzdana gospodarska rast in nain, kako uporabljamo naravna bogastva, najveji nevarnosti, ki nas vodita na rob preivetja kot vrste. Iz teh spoznanj izhaja trud, da ohranimo naravo okoli nas, da obvarujemo vse raznotere oblike ivljenja. Zaradi njih in nas samih, ki smo njihov sestavni del! Slovenija je ena od drav z najvejo biotsko raznovrstnostjo v Evropi. Tako stanje je posledica posebnih naravnih okoliin, kot so raznovrstnost geografskih, klimatskih, geolokih in drugih specifinih dejavnikov ter zasluga razlinih zgodovinskih okoliin v preteklih dvesto letih. V Sloveniji zavarovana obmoja narave delimo na razline kategorije, ki so mednarodno priznane (IUCN kategorizacija). Temeljna je loitev na ira in oja zavarovana obmoja. Za ira se uporablja sploni izraz naravni parki. O njih in drugih zavarovanih obmojih govori ta publikacija. Zavarovana obmoja narave obsegajo okoli 12,5 % povrine nae drave. Ta obmoja so nadgradnja drugega, temeljnega naravovarstvenega omreja.Tega tvorijo veliko obseneja obmoja, kot so t. i. ekoloko pomembna obmoja in obmoja Natura 2000 ter izjemna mnoica naravnih vrednot.

Introduction
The efforts to protect the areas where the greatest natural wealth and beauty are gathered in one place have a long history in Slovenia. Since the first initiatives at the beginning of the 20th century, the idea of protected areas and the need for their conservation have evolved, up until the last few decades when they became the paradigm of civilisations needs and one of the ways to achieve the sustainable development of society. Why such efforts and why do we protect some parts of nature? Modern societies and the effects of their development have an adverse impact on the natural environment. Data on biodiversity status and trends of its decline are very informative. Unspoiled nature is vanishing. We are becoming more and more aware that unrestrained economic development and the way we use natural resources are the greatest threats leading us to the brink of survival as a species. From this knowledge rises the effort to conserve the nature surrounding us, to protect various life forms. For their benefit and for ours, since we are part of them! Slovenia is one of the countries with the greatest biodiversity in Europe. This is the result of special natural circumstances, such as the diversity of geographical, climatic and other specific factors, and of different historical circumstances in the last two hundred years. In Slovenia protected natural areas are divided into different internationally recognised categories (IUCN categories). The basic division is into large and small protected areas. A general term for large areas is nature park. This publication is about these and other protected areas. Protected natural areas cover about 12.5% of Slovenias surface area. These areas are the upgrading of another, basic nature protection network composed of much wider areas, such as ecologically important areas, Natura 2000 sites, and the outstanding abundance of valuable natural features. By managing nature parks we provide for nature conservation and for the development of local communities that is adapted to it. Consequently, nature parks constitute part of measures for sustainable development policy. Not just as an instrument of environmental policy but also as a domain for creating new development patterns and searching for solutions to the

oblikami prispevajo k soitju med lovekom in naravo. Specifien, evropsko naravnani pristop k upravljanju zavarovanih obmoij, je jasno usmerjen v povezovanje naravovarstvenih ciljev s skrbjo za obstoj in socialni razvoj lokalnega prebivalstva. Zato je sam proces ustanavljanja parkov in njihovo posledino upravljanje povezano z odnosom oje ali ire javnosti do doloenega parka. Sodelovanje lokalnega prebivalstva pri upravljanju parkov je temeljni in nujni pogoj za njihov obstoj in uspeen razvoj. Komunikacijske poti sodobne drube postajajo pomemben dejavnik stalnega in odprtega sodelovanja s parkovno javnostjo. Enosmernost ekonomsko naravnanih razvojih politik vodi v nepovratne okoljske spremembe, zato se krepi pozitivni odnos in vedno ire razumevanje javnosti za ohranjanje narave in spodbuja stremljenja za ustanavljanje novih parkovnih obmoij. Omreje naravnih parkov ima tudi svoj mednarodni pomen. Z drugimi podobnimi omreji, ki obstajajo preko meja drave, se povezujejo v mednarodna omreja. S tem prispevajo k tvorjenju koridorjev, ki so pomembni za migratorne ivalske vrste. Povezovanja z drugimi parki v tujini imajo tudi svoje vepomenske oblike in vsebine in prinaajo mnoge pozitivne uinke. ira in tesneja povezovanja med sorodnimi parki preko dravnih meja so danes nuja in potreba, s katero se poveuje njihova uinkovitost, zagotavlja sinergija in iri njihov vpliv, kar vse pomembno prispeva k varstvu narave in izvajanju mednarodnih konvencij s podroja okoljskih politik. Tako kakor drugod, so tudi v Sloveniji potrebe po poveanju delea naravnih parkov. V zadnjih letih se zato vea tevilo programov in projektov za njihovo ustanavljanje. Hkrati se spodbuja tudi lokalne skupnosti, da z nivoja svojih pristojnosti poveujejo svoja omreja lokalnih zavarovanih obmoij. V Sloveniji so ustanovljena naslednja zavarovana obmoja: ira zavarovana obmoja ali naravni parki: 1 narodni park (IUCN: II/V) 3 regijski parki (IUCN: V/II) 44 krajinskih parkov (IUCN: V) oja zavarovana obmoja: 52 naravnih rezervatov (IUCN: IV in I) 1217 naravnih spomenikov (IUCN: III).

challenges brought on by unpredictable and fast globalisation processes. Maintaining the traditional way of life and use of natural resources with new development forms contribute to the symbiosis of humans and nature. The specific, Europe-oriented approach to managing protected areas is clearly directed towards integrating nature protection objectives with concern for the existence and social development of local communities. Therefore, the process of establishing parks and consequently managing them is associated with the attitude of the community or wider public towards the particular park. The cooperation of local community in the management of a park is the fundamental and essential condition for its existence and successful development. Communication paths of modern society are becoming an important factor in a permanent and open cooperation with the community in a park. Unidirectional and economy-oriented development policies lead to irreversible environmental changes. Therefore, the positive attitude of the public towards nature conservation and its ever wider support are strengthened and endeavours to establish new parks encouraged. Nature park network is also internationally important. By integrating with similar networks across the countrys border it becomes a part of international networks. In this way networks contribute to the formation of corridors, which are important for migratory animal species. Integration with other parks abroad has many forms and brings about many positive effects. Today a wider and closer integration of related parks across national borders is a necessity that increases their effectiveness, ensures synergy and spreads their influence. There are still many parts of nature that should be included in the network of nature parks in order to preserve the most representative and exceptional natural environments and strengthen their importance as guardians of natural wealth we can still witness. The following protected areas are established in Slovenia: large protected areas or nature parks: 1 national park (IUCN: II/V) 3 regional parks (IUCN: V/II) 44 landscape parks (IUCN: V) small protected areas: 52 nature reserves (IUCN: IV in I) 1217 natural monuments (IUCN: III).

Z upravljanjem naravnih parkov skrbimo za ohranjanje narave in temu prilagojen razvoj lokalnega prebivalstva. Naravni parki so tako sestavni del ukrepov politike trajnostnega razvoja. Ne le kot intrument okoljske politike, temve tudi kot torie za oblikovanje novih vzorcev razvoja in za iskanje odgovorov na izzive, ki jih prinaajo nepredvidljivi in nagli globalizacijski procesi.

A gently rolling landscape capturing the waves of the ancient Panonnian Sea
A part of the three-country crossborder park of Austria (Raab), Hungary (rsg) and Slovenia. The meeting point of three nations, three cultures. A landscape of old crops: pumpkins, buckwheat, spelt, rye, sunflowers, wheat and barley. A landscape with its own soul, where people are immensely attached to their land. A mosaic of forests, vineyards, orchards, meadows, fields, little villages and solitary farms. A landscape mirroring the primal human relationship with the land, close-to-nature living and admirable creativeness and originality in the use of materials offered by the land (wood, straw, clay). The name of the area comes from the local word for hills rising from the plain where there once was the Pannonian Sea. A paradise for hikers and cyclists.

Where the air is lled with the smell of salt sea energy entrapped in crystals
The most northern salt pans in the Mediterranean, formed on the alluvial deposits of the Dragonja river just before its mouth. One characteristic of the salt-making procedure, which hasnt changed for 700 years, is petola, a few millimetres thick live carpet of algae, gypsum and minerals preventing salt to be contaminated with mud and soil. Nowadays, salt-making is only maintained in the area of Lera. Habitat types of different salinity have formed in the abandoned salt pans, a home to organisms adapted to saline conditions. Typical salt pan landscape, a reflection of hard work in the sun, sea and wind.

Oasis on the threshold of Koper

A little part of Slovenian sea entrapped between the city of Koper, the port of Koper and the coastal highway. The last remaining evidence of island history of Koper and a green oasis on its threshold. The largest semi-saline wetland in Slovenia, restored in 2007 after years of filling-in and deliberate drainage intended for the expansion of the city and port. A paradise for water birds.

Where steep rocky peaks ascend to the sky and vast forests and sunny pastures spread at their feet
The central part of the Kamnik and Savinja Alps with steep rock faces, vast forests, mysterious valleys with playful streams, waterfalls falling over smooth rocks and clear rivers hurrying down towards the valley. Rich unspoiled nature, a real treasure for nature lovers. The valuable heritage of past generations of farmers, foresters, colliers, herdsmen and mountaineers. The kingdom of alpine farms, scattered on the highland under mountain peaks. A paradise where silence whispers and a soul finds peace.
